Choose the Right Size

 

Finding the right shoe size can sometimes be challenging.

 

The sizes of our shoes, boots, and sandals can vary from model to model, so unfortunately we do not have a uniform size guide that covers all our products. We have our products manufactured in different factories, which means that the soles do not all measure exactly the same.

 

In the product descriptions, where possible, we indicate whether a model runs larger or smaller than the expected size and whether we recommend that you choose ½–1 size larger or smaller than usual—depending on the model.

 

If you are unsure, you are always welcome to contact us at web@copenhagenshoes.com or by phone at +45 2020 0179. We are available on weekdays between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM and ready to advise you so that you order the correct size.

 

 

WHEN YOU RECEIVE YOUR NEW SHOES

 

They have arrived—your new fabulous purchase from Copenhagenshoes—and you can hardly wait to start using them. But before you show them off to your friends, we’d like to offer you some helpful advice about leather, size, and fit.

 

New shoes often require a break-in period, and you might be uncertain whether they fit perfectly. Follow these tips to get the best possible experience with your purchase:

 

  • Wear them around: Walk around in your shoes, preferably on a carpet, to protect the soles in case they need to be returned.
  • Test with socks: Avoid trying on the shoes without socks; use the ones you normally wear.
  • Try both shoes: Always put on both shoes or boots and walk for at least 5 minutes.

 

Perhaps you feel that your new shoes or boots are a bit too tight? Remember that leather will mold 100% to your foot. This is one of the advantages of us crafting our styles in high-quality leathers. Over the instep and in width, a shoe or boot will naturally yield a bit. However, leather also has its limitations and cannot stretch indefinitely. If you experience that the shoe or boot is very tight, we recommend going one size up.

 

If the shoe feels tight at the heel and/or around the toes, it is likely that the chosen size is too small—in which case, select one size larger. Conversely, if the shoe or boot is loose at the heel and/or toes, you might consider going one size down.

 

If you find yourself between two sizes, an insole can be the perfect solution. This simple and often overlooked option works excellently—allowing you to effectively adjust by half a size up or down. During the winter, you can also opt for an insole with wool and a cold shield to keep you even warmer.

 

In many of our styles, we incorporate our special Copenhagenshoes latex foam in the insoles, which makes the shoes much more comfortable to wear. After a couple of weeks, the foam will compress slightly under the weight of your foot, which is completely normal.

 

Our highly skilled customer service team is ready to assist you. If you have any questions about an item regarding size, color, or fit, please do not hesitate to contact us by email or phone.

 

We hope you love your new shoes as much as we enjoyed designing them. Enjoy your purchase!

Things to Be Aware of with Shoe Sizes

 

Shoe sizes can be a headache for many people, whether shopping online or in a physical store. There are EU shoe sizes, UK shoe sizes, and US shoe sizes—but what is the difference between them?

 

At first glance, EU shoe sizes may seem very similar to those from the United Kingdom, but they can vary quickly. There is also a significant difference between men’s and women’s shoes—except in the EU, where they are essentially the same. Shoe sizes measured in centimeters are often used when shoes are custom-made for you, although you can also find them in some mass-produced products.

 

If you are unsure about sizes while shopping online, you should always check what the size corresponds to in our size guide. This helps you avoid disappointment and unnecessary shipping costs.

 

 

How to Find the Right Fit

 

For shoes made from materials that are not particularly flexible, it may be advantageous to choose one size up. If you are very uncertain, consider visiting a physical store and seeking assistance from a sales associate to ensure you get the right size. The wrong size can cause foot pain—even if you do not notice it immediately—and can lead to an improper fit even if the shoe initially appears to be fine.

 

Also, keep in mind that if a shoe has a particular shape, such as a pointed toe, your normal size might vary.

 

Getting the right size is essential for the comfort and overall well-being of your feet!
